Everything here is real inside Plars — the approvals, the money, the programme — but the people and the files are invented. You can read everything and change nothing. Start your own project.

Advance payment
- Advance paid
- AED 150,000.00
- Recovered (20% of certificates)
- AED 150,000.00
- Still to recover
- AED 0.00
Paid before work started, so it is not payment for work done. It is recovered from each certificate until it is repaid, and recovery stops there — it can never take back more than was paid forward.
Fully recovered. Later certificates are no longer reduced.
Retention
- Held so far (10% of certificates)
- AED 165,875.00
- Released
- AED 82,937.50
- Still held
- AED 82,937.50
Retention is deducted from each certified amount and handed back in stages. It is money still owed, so it is included in Remaining above — not subtracted from it.
